Chilli Pepper Recipe FAQs
What can I do with chilli peppers?
You can use chilli peppers in any of the recipe collections available from HelloFresh. If you have more than you need, then consider freezing them or turning them into a chilli sauce, so they’ll keep for longer.
How do you prepare chilli peppers for cooking?
Protect the eyes and use rubber gloves for stronger chillies. Slice the top off and discard it. Next, cut the chilli into sections from top to bottom, finely chopping in the other direction for small, tasty sections.
Can you freeze fresh chillies?
Yes, you can freeze fresh chillies. Put them whole into a sealable bag and expel as much air as possible from it before freezing.
Should I remove the seeds from chillies?
Doing so will reduce their flavour intensity, which could be good or bad, depending on the chilli and personal preferences. It is a wise move if you’re cooking for guests or children who aren't used to chilli heat.
How do you remove seeds from Thai chilli peppers?
Remove the top of the chilli and then slice it in half, from top to bottom, to expose the inner part. Scrape the seeds away from the chilli using a teaspoon. Don’t use a finger, as it may cause inflammation.
